More than Symbol…

… more than the bread and wine of Christ, the body is a knowing connection, it is a telling thing, the medium of experience, expression, being, and knowing.
Just as the earth is one of the bodies of the universe, we are the bodies of earth, accidental atoms given this form.
An ancient and undivided world lives curled inside is with an ancestral memory that remembers our lives in the wilderness.
What the body knows and where it takes is navigated from an inner map not always carried in daily conciousness.
